Hope you enjoyed the Thanksgiving weekend! Take the time to savor all the flavors before you rush around shopping with all of your neighbors. Here’s your “Telling Trails” invite to get out and explore, all the gifts and treasures not found in a store. A special time for calm inspirations - an outdoor nature break from the Holiday stations. Comment on “Take Action” with which suits your best, a Saturday moment for a holiday rest, or a New Year hike to share your best!
